    One wee thing — I had a bit of a quiet patch a couple of years back, about three months in Spring where there was *just* enough work to keep me ticking over, but no real advancing traction.

    I had a lightbulb realisation when a bunch of people donated a very small amount of money each to a 'good cause', namely I was amazed by quite how much money could be quickly realised by taking on loads of small jobs. I'd made the mistake of investing effort only going after the bigger jobs, where - yes - there was an opportunity for a high reward... but which means nothing if you don't win the job.

    I spent the next two months focusing on tiddlers (eg. £30 a pop) and ended up having a good amount of work to be getting on with.

    • Agai, this is different to Design and Development where the only £30 jobs are insults from Craislist...detritus
